Nian Shilan was very sleepy, and she hadn't finished her dream yet. When Songzhi helped her sit up, her whole body exuded an unpleasant aura.
Since the cold dew fell yesterday, there is one less second-class maid to help Nian Shilan wash up.
Nian Shilan saw that Lidong, who usually did cleaning work in the courtyard, had good hands and feet, so he sent someone back to the Ulanala clan and hired Lidong, a third-class servant girl, to bear the cold dew errand.
Today is the first time in Lidong that Nian Shilan is standing by the bed as Mang Zhong waits for her to wash herself.
Nian Shilan glanced at Lidong lazily and saw that she was not as innovative in hair style as other slaves in the courtyard, nor was she lightly rouged like Mang Zhong. She looked very pure.
"You girl, it's your first time to serve you up close today. I think Mangzhong should have taught you the rules."
Lidong hurriedly stepped forward, knelt beside the bed, and raised the basin in his hands.
"Reporting to the master, Sister Mangzhong taught some rules to the slave last night, but the slave is stupid. Fortunately, the master took a fancy to her and promoted her to a second-class maid. If there is anything I can't do, I hope the master will forgive me."
Mangzhong lowered his head beside him, and Nian Shilan yawned and put his hands in a basin filled with rose petals to soak.
"The words speak volumes. He looks sharp. When you work by my side, your first priority is loyalty. If I find out that you have other intentions, have you seen what will happen to Luluo and Hanlu?"
Lidong's whole body trembled slightly. Luluo died tragically half a year ago. Lidong was kneeling in the corner of the yard. Although he didn't dare to look up, it was terrifying to hear.
As for the cold dew, yesterday I got up early at the beginning of winter and heard the servants talking about her nocturnal wandering syndrome. By noon, I had not seen the cold dew again.
According to private rumors among the servants in the courtyard, Han Lu seemed to have offended his master and was sent away. As for where he was sent, I guess it wasn't a good place.
Lidong replied.
"A slave has to be promoted by his master, so he only has his heart and soul."
Nian Shilan said lazily.
"That's good. It's just that your dress is a bit too plain. My Cheng'en Garden is not a place where slaves are not allowed to dress up. Just don't wander around the master when he comes. You are just like flowers. At your age, if I can't dress up, you will have to wear a different face. Who doesn't love beauty? When you are old enough, if you want to go out, I will let you go according to the rules. Just a little , you must be loyal when you are on duty, do you hear me clearly?"
The slaves in the room knew that the next few words were spoken by Xi Fujin to all of them, so they all said it in unison.
"Yes, slaves should remember their master's teachings."
Nian Shilan sat in front of the dressing table, and a new pimple on her left cheek was reflected in the bronze mirror.
If Nian Shilan in the previous life had seen such a scene, he would have been furious and punished the servants who were waiting for him. I blame them for their poor service and unbalanced diet.
But now, Nian Shilan just glanced at it and ignored it. She just sat and waited for Gu Yu and Xiaoman to put on makeup and comb her hair.
Xiao Man carefully applied the rouge on Nian Shilan, and gently drew her eyebrows. He took the rouge in his palms, rubbed it with both hands, and applied it lightly on Nian Shilan's cheeks, revealing a rosy and delicate face. Just appear in the bronze mirror.
Even the pimple that looked a bit annoying when Shilan was naked made people not pay much attention to its existence.
Nian Shilan stroked the bun that Guyu's skillful hands had tied for her, and called Xiao Linzi.
"Xiao Linzi, in a moment, go and ask Dr. Wen to come over and ask him to give me a prescription that can make this acne disappear."
Xiao Linzi took the pair of cards and left the house.
There is no need to pay tribute to Uranala today, so Lanchen sat at the table and had breakfast.
The steward of the palace came to report that tomorrow, October 18th, will be uploaded in the "Jade Box Chronicle". The sun will be in opposition to Xu, and it will be in the south. It is suitable for marriage, burial, and moving into the house. Nothing else can be done. It's a good day to move. Mrs. Feng can move from Jianjiaxuan to Cheng'en Garden. The craftsmen in the mansion can renovate Jianjiaxuan at the end of the month.
Nian Shilan casually flipped through the divination book presented by the butler, which was obscure and difficult to understand.
"Since it's an auspicious day, let's arrange it with someone."
The butler said again.
"My master has hired two qualified accountants and assigned six servants who can be used. They are already waiting outside the hospital. My master said, it's all up to you to call Fujin."
Nian Shilan replied with a smile.
"Then it's time for the housekeeper, I understand."
The butler arched his hands.
"How dare you, how dare you. Xiu Fujin has been in charge of the affairs of the house these days, and I will do my best to serve Xiu Fujin."
Nian Shilan sent the housekeeper away and invited those people in.
An San was lying on the beam, crossing his legs and gnawing his hooves leisurely, while listening to the movement in the room.
Nian Shilan came out of the house. The two accountants invited from outside and six of Yinzhen's servants bowed their heads and bowed respectfully to Nian Shilan. Nian Shilan settled down what they needed to do. , let Lidong take them to the temporarily vacant courtyard and start taking stock.
Although she didn't need to pay her respects to the Uranala family today, Feng still got up early. The housekeeper had been ordered to send someone to inform her that today she would move into Cheng'en Garden and live with Nian Shilan.
Feng Shi secretly sighed in her heart, seeing that Fujin was always at odds with Fujin on this side, and she was forced to follow her, and she didn't know what the result would be.
In this mansion, Mrs. Feng just wants to live peacefully, but now it seems that it may be difficult.
I don't know what kind of medicine is being sold in Xiangfujin's gourd, but he wants to live in Cheng'en Garden in the name of repairing Jianjiaxuan.
Ms. Feng had been thinking about it for several days. She was very cautious in the house and only served her master twice on the specified days. She never competed with anyone for favor and refused to even say a word.
Mrs. Feng was very worried. She sat in her room and watched the servants pack their things. She had already put away the dowry items and deed papers herself, and there were no valuables in the remaining boxes. So by the afternoon, Ms. Feng had already Moved into Cheng'en Garden.
Nian Shilan had a lot of things to do today and took a nap after lunch. Because she was afraid of the cold, a fire had been lit in the room early, using fine silver charcoal. At this time, Songzhi ordered the plum dance cake. The aroma was dense and made people sleepy.
Nian Shilan reluctantly cheered up and asked Songzhi to destroy the fragrant cake.
"From now on, no incense is allowed in this house without my permission."
Songzhi took the incense burner out of the house and asked the young eunuch to put it out and come back to the house.
"Didn't the master like all kinds of spices the most when he was in Nian Mansion? The slave smelled the warm smell and ordered it thinking that the master liked it. Please forgive me, master."
Nian Shilan calmed down and looked at Songzhi, the only person waiting in the room, before saying.
"In the past, I was a carefree young lady in Nian Mansion. I lit incense, which was both elegant and helpful for sleeping. Now that I am someone else's side, I have to be awake all the time and not be plotted by others. You say, can it be the same?"
Songzhi suddenly realized that the incense smelled warm, and the heat of the charcoal fire in the room really made people drowsy. She thought it was because she didn't sleep well last night and was sleepy because of her errands today.
"You can save it. Master, I have remembered that this incense was dedicated to Fujin by Shu Gege. Because Fujin didn't like burning incense, he gave it to you, master. However, Fujin didn't explain before that this incense was used to help him sleep. This Why?"
Nian Shilan looked at Songzhi, who turned fourteen only last month, and suddenly a smile appeared on her face.
"I'm afraid this fragrance has a great origin."
